You guys are welcome to join.
A normal jacket would suffice for now, but an armoured one is recommended for your safety & for future xBhp group rides.
Other riding gears are also highly recommended (for future rides).

Please ensure you're wearing jeans or any other thick & abrasion resistant trousers.

Please add your names to the ride plan, & post if you are in.

Cheers bro! This is new to me as well, this is my first xBHP G2G . Is anyone coming from whitefield or nearby? so that we can reach the meeting point together. I have memorized the google map I guess i'll reach in time.I have nearly no idea where we are going and i don't want to know, so tibby take care of me . It is really boring out here in office while a sturday ride is waiting for you.

[Youngking]

Weather Report!

Guys just had a look at the whether map today. Though it is not promising for a sunny day we need not worry. If at all it rains will be not severe only some drizzling. You can see the bunch of clouds in the map below moving eastwards to join our party . This was taken today morning @ 9:00.
(Reliability - predicted weather like this more than 10times before every ride )

Just now back from the ride. Thanks Guys for making the ride a fabulous one. Special thanks to Tibby for his company to DD hills. And a very special thanks to Kamikaze who accompanied till the END.

FYI the end is explained below .

While we(Tibby, kamikaze, me) were having a chit chat, kamikaze was seem to be very hungry for more miles, It was like the ride had just started for him. He was planning to head to mysore for lunch. I suggested the MC'd on krishnagiri route for the next ride. Next question from kami, shall we go? How can I reject an offer for a ride? it will be a shame on me. Then we decided to go to MC'd and headed towards hosur road. Tibby waved adieu and headed to bangalore while two mad nuts were starting a second chapter of a ride . And after once again a fabulous ride returned bangalore . Hope kami will share the ride experience with pics.

Please guys post the pics(request on behalf of tibby as well )!

Hey Guys

A Saturday spent well indeed. I should thank Youngking, for showing me a part of the country that I had never seen before, and more so, for letting me rip his beast of a CBR. And, Tibby, for the twistees of DD Hills, and for letting me have some of his infamous " African" diamonds.

Try as I may, I dont seem to remember much from this ride. I have hazy recollections between moments of intense epinephrine induced concentration. I did have a pleasant surprise on this ride tho.

Barreling down the road to Kishnagiri, doggedly trying to tail youngking, who playfully ducked in and out of sight, being for a moment, just in arm's reach and the next, floating away on the tarmac to merge with the horizon, I chanced to look down at my speedo and I saw the number 134 staring back at me. This scaled down Burt Munro-ish feat did not register in my mind immediately, but when realization dawned that I was going faster than I ever had before on me P220, I was very very glad that I had been able to haul my ass early morning to this G2G.

I will put up some pictures soon guys.

Cheers

[ashwin208]

well said guys .. Was wonderful riding with you all. My first oficial xbhp ride was good. Although I went back after breakfast in kamat , it was amazing .. will put up pics tomorrow .. the rain was an awsm experience ( of course , a PAIR of rain proof boots would have been good ).
